Description

New House Farm, Ashley

A RARE OPPORTUNITY. ONE REMARKABLE PROPERTY. TWO POSSIBLE FUTURES.

Every so often, a property comes to the market that offers something a little different and New House Farm is exactly that.

Set within the Staffordshire countryside in the sought-after village of Ashley, this impressive period detached farmhouse, together with its traditional barns and outbuildings, presents an exciting opportunity to shape the next chapter of a truly special property.

Perhaps the dream is to create one exceptional country home… Retain New House Farm as a substantial period residence and embrace everything already here – the character, the setting and the traditional outbuildings – while putting your own stamp on the property and creating a home that is completely individual.

OR, there is another exciting possibility…FULL PLANNING PERMISSION has already been granted to divide the existing farmhouse into TWO SEPARATE DWELLINGS, with new openings proposed to facilitate the additional unit. In addition, the three traditional barns have permission to be converted into residential dwellings, creating the potential for a new development of five homes in total. Planning Reference: 24/00783/FUL

It is a choice between two alternative futures, create one wonderful country home OR follow the approved plans to create a development of five individual homes, comprising two dwellings within the existing farmhouse and three residential barn conversions.

One property. Two possibilities. One opportunity to make it your own.
